Lochurd Hills Enclosures are post-medieval field systems located in Peeblesshire, Scotland, comprising multiple enclosure units positioned at varying distances west and west-southwest of Woolshears Hill. The site represents the agricultural organisation of the post-medieval period, when such enclosed fields became characteristic of the Scottish Borders landscape. The enclosures consist of field boundaries defined by banks and ditches, typical of early modern farming practices in the region. Such monuments provide material evidence of settlement patterns and land use during the sixteenth to eighteenth centuries in the Tweed Valley area.
